Just found these fun pics! Rose, Millie and Tiago having TOO much fun in the kitchen – Sorry Erica!
Bella Sharp was in town and came to hang with the girls – it was nice to see Starlee too 🙂
And Cody and Diego are home from their missions! Covid crazy missions – so good to have them home and safe and ready to move forward with life and with strong testimonies.
August 27th was a great day because I GOT TO SEE MY FRIEND KATIE!!! Erica and I met up with her at Costco and then we went out to lunch with Cameron and 2 of their kids – Celeste and Seth. The tacos were amazing but it was more amazing to be with old friends and refresh those relationships. I have the best high school friends!!
And the 30th was also a great day because we finally got our new GARAGE FRIDGE!! I didn’t realize how much we depended on that extra fridge and freezer space! It was a long summer with no otter pops or ice cream! It’s so convenient to have an extra fridge with all the easy frozen foods and always having milk on hand and lots of eggs and sodas. I will no longer take this fridge/freezer for granted.
We got to do some Family Home Evening and we had the Hancock’s over for dinner!
Celtic Soccer – Cali and Mia and Anna – It’s pretty great having soccer start early and it is really great having all 3 girls together! Coach Jake and Udine are having Cali try forward and mid instead of defense so she’s learning a lot. Mia and Anna are both playing defense.
Rose and Gentry making bracelets! And Benji, Packer and Cali got their 1st dose Covid Vaccine. Cali got a little sick from the shot but was still able to play in her soccer game and have cute hair. And get a good look at her 7th grade schedule!!
We had some chill days and some night time soccer practice and other night time fun. Summer evenings are the best.
And another Soccer game on the 6th.
The Hancocks had us over for Sunday Dinner and KICKBALL!!!
We went to PG POOL!! With the Hancocks! and my kids don’t need me to help them swim anymore! so weird
The Milwaukee BUCKS won the NBA Finals!!! Champions!
I love when the kids ride their BIKES
Reading a book! I love when I have time to read – Megan loaned me 4 books and I’m making my way through them: And Ben got me an early anniversary gift so that we could take it to ROBERTSON reunion!
The pool and pump have been giving me problems but I’m trying to keep up with it and the kids still LOVE to swim:
And now our bags are packed and we are ready to go to the California Cabin. Woot Woot!
So after the wedding on Saturday Shannon and Tommi left for their Honey moon in Puerto Rico, Eggers and Kevins fam also had to leave. Brady and Sam and Kelsey left Sunday. Then Michael, Ryan and John left on Tuesday. Mom and Tracie left on Wednesday and Josh and Mal stayed at our house until Friday and then went to Joels and to Mals bros for another day or two. IT WAS A SUPER FUN COUSIN FILLED WEEK.
One night we let the kids do Kong Kones and a SURPRISE DINNER! Surprise Dinner is so fun! They got to each pick one thing from Maceys to share for dinner!
And then the adults went to dinner – we did an early 40th bday celebration for Josh – Yummys:
This year Josh and Mal came to Strawberry Days Carnival with us! And we met up with Cousins: Falabellas, Wrights, Matt and Jamie and Hancocks! Lots of kids to ride rides. Some liked them and some didn’t. It was super hot but always worth it.
6th Graders get to walk the halls on their last morning and then come outside where all of the parents are waiting to congratulate them for finishing Elementary school. Only problem was Ben and I were on a plane to Mexico so we sent the boys over to give her this lei and congratulate her. Erica got these pics for me!
Last Day of School!!!
